The purpose of the study: to test the capabilities of a new automatic text analysis tool for identifying text parameters specific to people with certain psychological characteristics; to obtain data on the signs that distinguish texts of people with high personal aggressiveness. Method: a corpus linguistic-statistical research tool was applied, based on the relational-situational analysis, psycholinguistic indicators and dictionaries covering the vocabulary of emotional and rational evaluation; to assess the level of aggressiveness, the Bass-Perry questionnaire was used; the data were processed by binary classification algorithms: support vector machine (SVM) and Random Forest.Results: thanks to new tool, several textual signs of the authors' psychological characteristics were identified; classification was improved through the use of our data processing method; and some syntactic, semantic and lexical features of texts of highly hostile persons have been identified.
